EXT. MANSION - NIGHT "FIND VINNY"

Night falls and he still won't pick up the phone. You arrive at the mansion: the last place he went. It's oddly quiet for the site of a glamorous party the night before. Your invite must have gotten lost in the mail. In any case, you make your way inside to find your friend.

Actors have to look out for each other in this industry.

Feed me something real

INT. MANSION - NIGHT "PLAY YOUR PART"

An abandoned film set. A broken home cinema. Searching the mansion and unlocking its secrets requires the fullness of your ingenuity. Pay attention.

INT. HOME CINEMA - NIGHT "A SPLICE OF LIFE"

Your search reveals a number of USB drives and memory cards containing corrupted video files. Some can be spliced together to reveal what really happened within these walls. Try not to lose yourself in your work.

INT. HEART OF HOLLYWOOD - NIGHT "TAKE YOUR SHOT"

The house is watching. It seems to haunt your steps. Piece together what really happened last night as you discover a side of the entertainment industry only discussed in whispers.

The cruelty. The sordid gossip. The auditions gone wrong. The shadowy figure with the power to make or break your career.

There's only one way to guarantee your success: feed me something real.

Six Days in Fallujah is a first-person tactical shooter that drops you into real-world missions that require real-life tactics to overcome. Play solo with an AI fireteam, mix AI with humans, or play all-human co-op online.

Crafted with help from dozens of Marines and Soldiers who fought in one of the world’s most harrowing modern battles, this is urban combat as it’s really fought.

LEAD AN AI FIRETEAM

Born to defend, built for victory. Your AI fireteam automatically protects you with authentic Marine tactics, but they’ll need your leadership in tricky situations. Order your team to suppress enemies, breach fortifications, hold positions, secure targets, and much more.

4-PLAYER TACTICAL CO-OP

Stay tight! Teamwork is essential. AI enemies will stalk, flank, and ambush you, sneak through tunnels, lure you into traps, and use the same tactics against you that made the Second Battle of Fallujah among the bloodiest in half a century.

Play with friends, matchmake online, or play with a mix of humans and AI teammates.

2 STORY MISSIONS + 8 PROCEDURAL MISSIONS

Scarier than fiction, these true stories take you inside the dawn of ISIS through recreated actual events, real battle footage, and eyewitness interviews.

Six Days in Fallujah now includes its first two story missions, one new procedural mission, plus seven updated procedural missions – with all the procedural missions playable solo or with mixes of human and AI teammates.

PROCEDURAL ARCHITECTURE

Marines never knew what was waiting behind the next door – so neither can you. Every time you start a mission, entire buildings will change shape inside and out, enemies will take up new positions, and unique threats will emerge. You'll never know what to expect -- just like actual combat.

360-DEGREE BATTLEFIELD

There are no front lines or guard rails in Six Days. Enemies will stalk, flank, ambush, and attempt to lure you into traps anywhere on the battlefield. Attack them from any direction, indoors or outdoors. Climb up to rooftops, through windows, and across planks. The choices are yours. And so are the consequences.

THE SECOND BATTLE OF FALLUJAH

In 2004, Al Qaeda seized control of the city of Fallujah in Iraq, using it as a base to brutalize its residents and launch terror attacks across the region. After six long months, Iraq's prime minister ordered all civilians to vacate the city, so Iraqi, American, and British forces could retake Fallujah together. In just six days, the Second Battle of Fallujah became one of the bloodiest battles the world had seen in half a century.

ROADMAP

Six Days currently offers 2 Story missions, plus 8 Procedural missions that are set in urban maps that are generated procedurally each time the game is played.

We plan to release 12 more missions, plus a variety of new features, by the time the game is in Full Release. This content will be free for Early Access owners, with the price likely increasing in the future for new purchasers after more content is added.

We’re currently targeting late 2025 for Full Release.

Step into the melancholic world of a Russian doomer, living in the bleak confines of a typical post-Soviet Khrushchev. Your life is a cycle of addictions, mundane work, and endless introspection, set against the backdrop of a provincial town that time forgot.

Experience the raw and gritty, yet very nostalgic atmosphere. Wander aimlessly around your neighborhood, through garages, explore the empty playgrounds, or sit and smoke by the flower bed where the cigarette butts pile up. When the weight of the outside world becomes too much, retreat to your small apartment. Inspect the mementos of your past, surf the internet, pet your faithful rat, or lose yourself in the old TV shows and commercials that echo the sentiment of your soul.

In this game, you’re not chasing grand adventures. Instead, you’ll explore the quiet, unassuming corners of your life—smoking a cigarette, taking a stroll through the desolate yards, or simply embracing the sweet apathy of it all. This is your nostalgic playground, some actions lead to unexpected consequences, all you have to do is experiment.

Embrace the carelessness, and navigate the grey days of a life that’s as familiar as it is empty.

Fear, Bloober Team and Ansher Studios fully delivered on their promises, creating the definitive way to experience these journeys into madness. There's no denying that there isn't a more immersive horror experience to be had in 2023.”
8/10 – Wccftech

“This is easily the best game Bloober Team have put out yet, and its existence serves to show everyone why they believe they're the right people to helm the Silent Hill 2 remake—and I have to admit, they've convinced me. Just like that, I've gone from being ambivalent about Silent Hill 2, to cautiously optimistic.”
9/10 – PC Gamer

“Bloober Team and Anshar Studios take what strong foundation had already been laid with the first three titles, and improves upon it substantially with fresh, impactful mechanics, excellent visuals, and a brand-new, overarching tale that spans the length of all artists' stories. For both new and loyal fans alike, Layers of Fear is a worthwhile venture back down the rabbit hole.”

The series, which has left a mark on narrative-driven first-person psychological horror games, returns to tell its final spine-chilling story in Layers of Fear.. The series’ crowning work is the definitive way to experience the critically acclaimed franchise as it features Layers of Fear and Layers of Fear 2, as well as all DLCs (including the new ‘The Final Note’ DLC that will give you a new perspective on the Layers of Fear storyline) and the never-before-told story of The Writer, which will tie everything together. Built on Unreal Engine 5, Layers of Fear supports Ray Tracing, HDR and 4K resolution to make the stunning visuals, and your nightmarish experience, as immersive and realistic as possible.

Layers of Fear: Create Your Magnum Opus
“The one precious thing you ever truly desired… FINISH IT.”

Explore a Victorian mansion covered in artwork as The Painter, whose sanity crumbles and cracks just like old oil paint on canvas. Trawl through the ever-changing house to find the supplies needed for your greatest masterpiece, all while trying to outrun your past.
Inheritance DLC: Face Your Past

“I was once told insanity runs in my family… It’s time to make it stop.”

Told from the perspective of The Painter’s Daughter, you come seeking answers. What secrets does this homestead hold? Will you ever truly understand the madness that bestowed your father? Can you ever forgive him? The house may hold everything you need to know... if you can face reliving your past.

The Final Note DLC: Delve Even Deeper

A brand new DLC which aims to shed more light on The Painter, his muse and the family’s backstory, The Final Note is told from the perspective of The Painter’s Wife. This additional narrative may change how you see the characters of the first game, as well as their actions.

Layers of Fear 2: Hit Your Marks

“Time waits for no one, actor. Do not waste ours.”

You are the lead actor in a production being filmed aboard an ocean liner, but all is not what it seems. Explore the ship and discover why you were perfect for The Director’s (voiced by Tony Todd) latest film. You awake and are told one simple command “Act.” But will you?

The Final Prologue

The first expansion to Layers of Fear 2’s storyline allows you to step into the director’s seat and take the reins of a troubled Hollywood production. Immerse yourself into the psyche of the movie’s creator as you seek to complete your final masterpiece, even as the set around you descends into chaos.

It’s up to you to direct the action and make sure that what’s in the script makes it onto the silver screen. Experiment with different takes and try to fulfill your vision of the ultimate horror movie, all while battling inner demons and external forces that threaten to derail the whole production.

This latest chapter in the Layers of Fear anthology is available as a FREE UPDATE for all current Layers of Fear owners. The Final Prologue is playable as a separate chapter within the game’s menu.

The Lighthouse Chapter: Link the Layers

Enter a lone and ghastly lighthouse as the newest protagonist, The Writer, and discover a never-before-told tale which will tie the entire series together. What awaits you there? You’ll just have to find out.

This is a story about death.

Luto is a psychological horror experience where you take on the role of someone unable to leave their home. Every attempt to escape will lead you deeper into the unknown, where nothing is as it seems and everything will test your senses.

What lies behind loss: feel the void left by the absence of a loved one, where despair grows, fed by anxiety and depression. Day after day...
Between reality and fiction: delve into an enigmatic place and explore its labyrinthine paths full of secrets. The truth has many faces, and you might not like the one you find.
Will not let you go: experience unsettling terror that envelops your senses, with fears lurking around every corner. Darkness does not only dwell in shadows.
Never.

Jusant is a brand-new action-puzzle climbing game and a meditative journey to the top of a tall tower. Challenge yourself at your own pace, explore different paths, and unravel the secrets from a bygone civilization.

Master your climbing tools and watch your stamina meter to successfully navigate this mysterious and changing tower. As you go higher and hone your skills, you’ll have to figure out how best to use the tools at your disposal to get to where you want to go. Explore alternative paths to find clues about what happened here.

About the Game

Farm. Decorate. Craft. Explore. Relax. Your future—and the future of Coral Island—is what you make of it.

Build Your Dream Farm
Transform your overrun land on Coral Island into a lush and lively dreamscape—you decide what to build, what crops to grow, and which animals you’d like to tend.

Write your own story:
The story changes with each season, but life goes with the flow. Spend your days exploring, or build a life with someone special. Save the seas, brave the caves, or focus on your farm. It’s up to you!

Be yourself:
Choose from a wide variety of outfits, accessories, and physiques—you’ll find plenty of options to express yourself, find your style, and be whoever you want to be.

Befriend a diverse cast of islanders:
Get to know the 70+ characters from all walks of life who live on Coral Island. Converse with them, find out more about their interests, and try to impress them with just the right gift.

Find that special someone:
Meet 25 singles who are ready to mingle! Build relationships, sweep them off their feet, and find the one—and when you’re ready, embark on a new chapter of your story together at the farm.

Restore an island once paradise:
Make Coral Island a better place for everyone! Take part in community projects to liven up the town, expand the local museum, and discover how to restore heritage sites. Increase the town's rank and your community will thrive!

Catch of the day:
Island living has a lot of perks, including being just a stone's throw away from fun activities like hunting for insects and catching fish.

Dive the ocean & mine the caverns:
Go diving to restore the coral reef, or mine precious gemstones in the cavern. Whatever you decide to do, you’ll find loot to hone your tools and upgrade the quality of your livestock and crops.",{"_25":4496,"_14":4326,"_303":4497,"_305":4498,"_307":4499,"_355":4546,"_400":4590,"_449":4639,"_455":4660,"_469":4685,"_483":4719,"_551":4787,"_593":4837,"_597":4844,"_599":4845,"_621":62,"_299":48},"caa7ba54-007d-4d20-b7ec-302d0697cac2","2025-07-02T14:59:06.372737","2025-07-25T20:11:47.27",[4500,4504,4509,4513,4518,4523,4528,4533,4538,4542],{"_310":4501,"_312":1453,"_314":329,"_316":4502,"_318":4503},"Cozy & Engaging Farm Sim",1331,"Players consistently praise the game as a highly relaxing and enjoyable farming/life simulation experience.

Western Front. As a German Unteroffizier, you are responsible for a group of soldiers. Whether they will survive the war is in your hands. Welcome to the trenches, Herr Unteroffizier!

The time in the camp is marked by heavy labor with an insecure supply situation. Is there enough time for the men to rest? Can they process the horrors they have experienced and mourn the fallen?

Your decisions between the needs of the soldiers and the demands of the superiors result in a unique story each time. But your choices don't change the war. They change the life of your soldiers.

The chaos of war threatens the physical and mental well-being of the soldiers. Again and again you have to make decisions in an attempt to face the fatal coincidences of the battlefield.

It’s been 250 years since your home - an ark-like spaceship - fled an Earth on the verge of cold war to find a habitable planet to preserve the human race.

You are Harold, a young lab assistant for the ship’s lead scientist, Jeanne Mareaux. While most of the ship’s inhabitants have reconciled themselves to a life lived aboard the sunken ship, Mareaux still works tirelessly to find a way for the ship to leave the planet and find a new, dryer home.

But the weird, wonderful and diverse people of the FEDORA I keep Harold busy too… Until one fateful encounter plunges Harold into a world no one could have imagined - and one that may hold the key to Mareaux’s re-launch plans.

Join Harold as he explores a vibrant retro-future world in his quest to find the true meaning of ‘home’.

Features:

Unique Stop-Motion Aesthetics: Every element in Harold Halibut is a tactile and meticulously hand-crafted using traditional sculpting and model-making techniques.
Full Voice Acting: All of the Fedoras' wonderful inhabitants come to life with full English voiceover, elevating the game's narrative to cinematic proportions.
An expansive Character Ensemble: Meet a variety of unique characters and get to know their personalities, quirks and stories through meaningful conversations.
A riveting cinematic storyline: Journey through a captivating narrative, underscored by a carefully orchestrated script that blends drama, humor, and suspense.

Welcome home, Child.

Regain your child-like sense of wonder in this social adventure game.

The Realms of Sky need the Light within you to heal the world of Darkness.

Keep watch for the Spirits of your Ancestors. Some of them are stuck here—and they need your help. You have the power to free them, and return them to their home among the stars.

FEATURES

EXPLORE AN OPEN-WORLD
A wholesome, cozy Kingdom filled with adventure and delight. The perfect place to hang out with friends—or a daily escape for those who prefer to relax and unwind on their own.

ENDLESS ADVENTURE
Embark on quests, solve puzzles, and explore the ruins of an ancient civilization. Take flight, make friends, and undergo trials to defeat the Darkness. Play music, attend concerts, and throw parties in your in-game home.

DEEP, EXPANSIVE LORE
The Realm is shattered, and filled with fragments of what came before. Discover relics, decipher murals, and free ancestral Spirits trapped by an ancient cataclysm. Through piecemeal, environmental storytelling, discover the deep history of this world—and your place at the heart of everything.

EXPRESS YOUR INDIVIDUALITY
A kind, inclusive community is ready to welcome you and your loved ones. Express your personal style with an ever-expanding catalog of cosmetics; connect with other players through charming, beautifully-animated emotes. In Sky, you are welcome and encouraged to be whoever you are.

A SOCIAL MMO
Make sure to look out for other Sky Children! Some of them are new, like you, but many have been here for quite some time—and they love to guide new arrivals as yourself.",[],"https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/2325290/capsule_184x69.jpg?t=1745279014",{"_277":6316,"_279":6317},"Minimum:

During Chongzhen’s Reign (A.D. 1628-1644), land annexation reached unmitigated extremes, the country faced domestic issues and foreign invasions, coinciding with the catastrophic Little Ice Age. After many years of horrid disasters in succession one after another, the Ming court continued to impose inhumane policies resulting in widespread starvation and leading to the rise of multiple rebellions against the court.

Liang the bandit, and his companion are commissioned for a job from an unsavory merchant and must escort four girls to a wealthy lord in the city of Luoyang. They must pass through Huazhou, Wenxiang, Shanzhou, and finally reach their destination of Luoyang.

Liang initially believes that the girls he is escorting will be sold to the wealthy lord as adopted daughters to begin a new life. However, one of the four girls named “Sui” reveals the hidden secret of their journey to Luoyang.

The lord is a swine demon who has practiced devouring young ladies for over a thousand years. Every year on his birthday, he dispatches human traffickers to abduct girls from Shan in celebration of his special day. Sui’s sister was among the many who have fallen victim to the demon’s appetite.

Sui is hopeful that Liang will end the escort and join her in assassinating the swine demon to avenge her sister, and those who have perished in recent years. Although Liang wants to believe Sui, there are too many inconsistencies in her story. Throughout the journey, Liang will gather information, unravel the truth, and make his decisions accordingly.

Play as Liang, the main character and protagonist. His family has run a successful business for years, but Liang never saw himself as his father’s successor. Instead, he would rather travel the world as a hero and visit as many new locations as possible. The day of the Great Tianqi Explosion in 1626, was the day Liang lost everything. After becoming a refugee with nothing left to his name, he turned to a life of crime. Liang became a bandit and makes a living by killing others for loot.

Sui, a nine-year-old mute born in Luoyang. Her sister was killed by the swine demon that also dwells in Luoyang. To avenge her sister’s death, she intentionally let her self-become abducted to get close to the demon and assassinate him. Some, or all of the above statement is false, part of Sui’s untrustworthy nature.

Liang’s partner Tongue, the silver-tongued devil who is motivated by greed. When they work jobs together, Liang executes their target's lives while Tongue works on securing loot.

A girl from an authoritative family that was abducted by human traffickers. It is said to be a distant relative of governor general Yuan.

One of the two sisters from Northern Shannxi who was sold by her parents in a year of turmoil. She is full of vigor and an honest person, who cares deeply about her sister.

One of the two sisters from Northern Shannxi, also sold by her parents. She is charming, pure of heart, and is also very dependent on her older sister.

An old friend of Liang, who owns an inn outside of Haizhou city.

In the fifth year of Chongzhen (1633), a rebel leader came to Jin from Shan and called himself the "Dashing King".

The swine demon disguised as a wealthy lord that devours young girls on his birthday for thousands of years, according to Sui. He is also the one who has commissioned Liang to escort the four girls to the city of Luoyang.

There are a variety of different endings and branch options, but good deeds cannot be rewarded during times of war. Pay for the crimes Liang has committed and suffer the consequences.

In addition to a rich storyline, our goal is to achieve the highest level of quality in a Chinese visual novel. Implementing a unique combination of traditional Chinese art and animation style, focusing on impasto painting technique. We rigorously follow the clothing, architecture, environment and other elements of the late Ming Dynasty, to bring both the historical atmosphere and visually appealing aesthetic to our audience.

We also strive to achieve the highest level of authenticity in terms of sound quality. Music and sound effects will be composed by Lin Fangzhou, alongside our producer who will also provide direction and creative input. Leng Quan Ye Yue will lead as the voice recording director, working alongside talents like Hanser, Hua Ling (Genshin Impact, Honkai: Star Rail), and others.

Cooked on both sides. As always

Embrace the truth in Arctic Eggs, or the Tale of the Modern Odysseus. Slip into the boots of a humble Poultry Peddler, stripped of rank for crimes forgotten. Pan in hand, set forth and feed the hungry inhabitants of this humble habitat. It’s all in the wrist.

COOK LIKE THE PROS

Our team of culinary experts worked tirelessly to ensure that Arctic Eggs is the most realistic cooking simulator on the planet. Unfortunately, our chefs don’t know how to program. So we made something like Getting Over It, but for cooking eggs.

SUBSCRIBE NOW TO EGGS+

What are fish but eggs with extra steps? What is bacon but pigs without the fluff? How long should one cook a cigarette? Such questions have plagued poets and kings since man claimed fire. Perhaps in your journey you’ll find the answers. Or like, at least the answers for YOU, dude. That’s what matters most.

TOUCH LIVES

Everyone has a story. All you have to do is listen. Or don’t. You can just click real fast to get to the cooking parts. It’s not like we’re watching you. YOU bought the game. You can play it now YOU want. I mean, who am I to tell you what to do? Not really my vibe.

REALISTIC PHYSICS

The game isn’t hard. Cooking is.

Can you cook an egg on top of Mount Everest? I am not sure. But perhaps that’s irrelevant. Maybe you can. Maybe you can't. I like to think so. :)

The world is broken. Its surface seethes with an undead curse, while humanity clings to flying continents in the sky. From mushroom forests to undead mausoleums, strange places and people await you. But will you find a way to heal this world - or seek power and profit for yourself?
